Intense violence. Strong language. Blood and Gore. If that’s your kinda thing, then you’ll be in for a hell of a time in Bioshock for the Xbox360. Amazing atmosphere and visual design with the technical prowess to back it all up. Scoring 9/10 on major gaming websites – this is without a doubt the title to look out for the Xbox360 this year.

I for one feel strongly about everything having it’s own appropriate place and time. Karaoke-ing at home is on the top of my No No List. Call it basic human courtesy or anything you’d like – I believe one’s enjoyment should not translates to someone else’s suffering. Sadly, Sony doesn’t think so.

At Nokia’s GoPlay Press Conference in London, Anssi Vanjoki — Nokia’s Executive VP & General Manager of Multimedia said, “If there is something good in the world then we copy with pride.” So here you have it, a shameless copy of the Apple iPhone by the number one mobile phone manufacturer in the world. And here’s a video to proof it.

Received a funny email from a fellow colleague today. The header of the email reads “Working With Idiots Can Kill You!”. From the email, there was an image of a newspaper clipping. Had a blast reading through the article. Hey, if it’s printed in the newspaper – there must be some actual research done on it, right? Wrong! Did a quick search and found out that it was actually something published by Weekly World News. More details after the break.

Watched this last night, on hindsight – time spent could’ve been used for better things like replaying the demo of Heavenly Sword on the Playstation 3 for the 20th time or something. Though it’s from the same people who brought us the amazingly funny Bruce Almighty starring Jim Carrey – this 2nd movie is nothing but a big try-hard.

I wonder why Apple did not include this little feature in the iPhone itself. It’s quite a handy application and the people who came up with this is awsome! With a simple hack, this feature will be added into your iPhone. Images and link after the break.

HackTheiPhone.net is heaven sent for the iPhone commmunity. The site got loads of tutorials with simple step-by-step screenshots for non-techie iPhone users like me. His latest, a detailed guide (with step-by-step screenshots nonetheless) on GeoHot’s Hardware Unlock for the iPhone. Links and images after the break.
